[AMD Official Use Only]
To explain more -
It's an unconditional reset done by the kernel on every suspend
(S3/S4). In such a case which process is going to receive the trace events?
Most likely use case would be related to gpu recovery. Triggering a trace on
every reset doesn't look like a good idea.
If you observer carefully, we are just providing an infrastructure, the
application's intention is unknown to us. In my opinion it's rather not
a good idea to apply a filter in kernel, with our interpretation of
intention.
For example if an app just wants to count how many resets are happening
due to S3/S4 transition, this infra might become useless. It would
rather be a better idea for the app to learn and ignore these scenarios
which it is not interested in.
This could eventually be just difference in design philosophy maybe :)

Subject: [PATCH 4/4] drm/amdgpu/nv: add navi GPU reset handler
This patch adds a GPU reset handler for Navi ASIC family, which
typically dumps some of the registersand sends a trace event.

Had a comment on this before. Now there are different reasons (or even
no reason like a precautionary reset) to perform reset. A user would
be interested in a trace only if the reason is valid.
To clarify on why a work shouldn't be scheduled on every reset, check
here -
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amd
gpu/amdgpu_drv.c#L2188
In the example you pointed to, they have a criteria to decide what is a valid
reset in their context, in the kernel side itself. So they can take a call if
they want to do something about it or not.
But, in our case, we want to send the trace_event to user with some register
values on every reset, and it is actually up to the profiling app to interpret
(along with what it wants to call a GPU reset). So I don't think this is
causing a considerable overhead.
